Why we shouldn't torture

As many have said, it's sad (and frightening) that this should even be open to discussion.

Below are links to some excellent articles on the topic. The first is by Ray McGovern, a retired intelligence analyist with 27 years experience and the founder of Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity. The second is by John Dean, former White House counsel. The third, and most powerful, is by Vladimir Bukovsky, who spent nearly 12 years in Soviet prisons, labor camps and psychiatric hospitals for nonviolent human rights activities and knows about torture from first-hand experience as well as from living in a totalitarian society.
